Yes you damage pets hearing just like you damage your own. Cats don't really need to hear, it's not like they follow commands like dogs so just do whatever you feel like.
My cat most certainly does follow basic commands, He knows what his toy mice are and he fetches. "Cats don't really need to hear"
It should be fine. Think about it like this, some wild cats live next to train stations or train tracks. So a sub isn't bad compared to daily train horns some cats have to live with.
